HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., Nov. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Forterus Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FTER) today announced that its board of directors has approved buying back up to $20,000 in stock in open market transactions.

"Our senior management has concluded that Forterus' stock is severely undervalued, and does not reflect the financial success of the company, including its exceptionally strong profits from the past two months," said Paul Howarth, CEO of Forterus.

"We therefore believe that a small portion of our working capital should be used to complete this proposed redemption program, since the market has not reflected our financial achievements."

Forterus acquired Murrieta, Calif.-based A Better Tomorrow Treatment Center, Inc. in August, one of the largest and fastest growing drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Southern California.

A Better Tomorrow is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), placing it in the top 5 percent of drug and alcohol treatment centers in California.

Forterus Inc. and its subsidiaries engage in diverse business activities, including behavioral healthcare, intervention services, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, pain management, physical therapy, finance as well as thoroughbred breeding and racing.
